Any one ever in the company of Ronnie Doggett could see very quickly that Ronnie had a zest
for life ~ his quick laugh and warm smile instantly put others at ease, and most certainly impacted his 50 years as a successful antiques dealer. He owned shops in Missouri, Indiana and his beloved Louisville, Kentucky, where his shop (Tin Horse Antiques) was a favorite gathering place for friends, dealers, decorators and his faithful clients. Ronnie loved to sell antiques, but his business was simply a means to an end - the hunt and acquisition of rare and beautiful objects.
Ronnie had a long, trusted relationship with Garth's. He loved coming to the auctions, van
loaded and cell phone in hand, dialing his clients on the way home, "I have the perfect piece
for you!" With an infallible memory, he knew his clients and their collections well; buying
selectively with special people in mind. This caring nature endeared him to many.
We will miss Ronnie's keen eye and wonderful sense of humor; but feel sure he is smiling at
the thought of his personal collection passing through this sale room, into the hands of another
passionate buyer.
